The shooting left a man and woman in their 20s with serious injuries in the third high-profile act of violence in less than a week

The shooting happened around 6 a.m., shortly after police received a call regarding stunt driving on Yonge Street involving multiple vehicles, Inspector Michelle Olszevski told reporters at the scene. Police believe the people who participated in the stunt driving were gathered outside 7 Charles Street when a black SUV drove by and fired multiple gunshots. The vehicle then proceeded to flee north on Bay Street.

Police did not have details on the number of suspects involved. The two victims were transported to a local trauma centre with serious but non-life-threatening injuries. Investigators asked witnesses or nearby businesses with video footage to come forward. The three men were involved in a physical dispute when two of them started shooting at each other with handguns, police said in a weekend news release. All three men fled the scene on foot.
